Its not as bad as you think. There’s normally several professional negotiators in the room for guidance. Your pilot negotiators meet with them for days in advance to formulate a strategy. Usually attorneys and you had one that went to Yale law school and has argued in front of the Supreme Court. Not sure if he’s still there or not?

How are they getting ready to hire? The US just shut down all international travel and the numbers traveling domestically have been abysmal. What are they seeing that I’m not?

Well the ULCC model is built for times like this. Unfortunately our CASM are more in line with the Legacies, then a Spirit or Frontier. So yes, furloughs are still on the table as we burn 8 million/day. Not saying that means to vote yes to LOA 13, but don’t get a false sense of security that Jetblue is out of the woods by any means because F9 is hiring soon.
